Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the low end of the spectrum of treatment solutions in terms of intensity of care, since the individual will be able to maintain their lifestyle in lots of ways without the commitment of needing to be in a rehab center while undergoing treatment services. While this might appear ideal it might not provide the required change of surroundings than many individuals in rehabilitation need to experience a successful rehabilitation.

Spanish

Not all alcohol and drug rehab programs have the staff or wherewithal to cater to the requirements of Spanish speaking clients, but thankfully there are more and more facilities that can do so because the need for Spanish services is higher than ever before. Therapy, study data and the like are now very often available in Spanish in both short and long terms facilities which provide inpatient or residential rehabilitation and outpatient Spanish rehabilitation is also available nationwide.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when someone's insurance won't pay for the total cost of rehabilitation or will only cover part of it. In these instances, it may appear like a disadvantage but people really have a great deal of leverage due to the fact they can select whichever center they would like without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many people encounter. In addition, rehabilitation facilities will often provide payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to help them get into treatment.

Medicaid

Some rehabilitation facilities accept Medicaid when the individual is not able to self pay or present any other type of private health care insurance. Medicaid might pay for outpatient and short-term rehabilitation within a limited amount of programs, and in such cases individuals may wish to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they can to cover a more quality rehab program which will produce better results, such as a long-term residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation center.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the expense of drug rehabilitation if other forms of insurance or self payment are not a choice. If a person doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know whether they could qualify for state insurance, they should check with their Social Services office in their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance covers both outpatient and inpatient treatment, but generally only inside the state which offers the insurance coverage.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical health insurance plans typically cover some sort of drug rehab service including outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential alcohol and drug rehabilitation programs. Individuals could have to participate in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation center which is within their network of providers and there may be other limitations for example how long their stay in treatment is covered. Individuals can pick an excellent center they prefer and speak with a rehabilitation specialist to find out if their insurance covers it.

Military Insurance (E.G., Va, Tricare)

Military insurance such as VA and Tricare does cover the expenses of particular substance abuse rehab solutions. Detox services, outpatient and inpatient programs as well as partial hospitalization are covered by military insurance, although military members may require pre-authorization and in that case they can speak with their VA or Tricare consultant. There might be some limitations regarding the length of time a stay in inpatient drug and alcohol treatment is permitted, and all of these questions can be answered before beginning treatment so that it is clear just how long and individual can remain in the treatment center of choice.

Payment Assistance (Check With Facility For Details)

Many drug treatment facilities offer payment assistance to help individuals who might possibly not have sufficient money to self pay for rehab or whose medical insurance won't supply coverage or total coverage for his or her stay. As an example, Sometimes insurance only pays for a short-term center when in reality a long-term center is going to be the more ideal choice. To determine what payment assistance could be available, such as a sliding fee scale, check with the facility for details.
